Pros

rapid-pace fun product that is even used heavily internally

Cons

constant reorganization. many joke that they are on their 5th manager in 1 year extremely unprofessional, angry leaders. it's not uncommon to see people "torn apart" in meetings. it's not uncommon to see highly inebriated leaders at offsites - slurred speech, difficulty standing, speaking openly about other employees they manage to their peers. there is extremely high turnover, so when you find a great peer group, often the ones you like the most will probably leave. promotions are all about building perception -- not about what you really do.

Pros

Exciting market space with leadership position, high growth potential Our customers love our products and look for more opportunities to leverage the platform Salesforce Foundation 1:1:1, Charity Donation Matching, Employee Perks - fantastic Onboarding process is really well done. Probably due to the sheer number of new hire bootcamps!

Cons

Territory carving is a mess. Veterans have the lions share of accounts- install and whitespace yet all AEs have the same quota. Small percentage of AEs actually make OTE....if you do then you're in Club! I'd rather have a real shot at hitting OTE!! Multiyear bookings result in a higher quota the following year that actually negates any increase in year 1 compensation...why? where's the incentive
